Peter English will force you to learn the content. You can't just hand weave your way through that class.

Expect to learn content by learning sentences to explain complex concepts while being expected to apply knowledge to distinct scenarios. Please plan out assignments and study accordingly to the syllabus/expected days of material. It will really help you in the long run when the class gets intensive.

Lectures are very structured and right to the point, to the point where he will ask teleological questions or questions that a 5th grader would ask, and expect an answer that is explicit to the concept or pertaining to the lecture. He will destroy any existing misconceptions you have over concepts.

He is very strict to the syllabus, and will probably not entertain extraneous requests. Probably not very accessible in terms of disabilities/learning impairments or concerns unless you're already registered with D&A and provide him a letter.

Find a good group of people to study and do clicker questions with. This is probably key to doing well. If not, he'll often say "get up and get with another group"

For most people, they will probably end up with a B in the class unless you're pouring in more hours than what you'll get out of the course. So if knowing the concepts are important, this should probably be the professor to endure. If you are wanting an A, probably shouldn't take this professor.
